A man was stabbed to death inside his car in Manila on Tuesday. 

According to Marisol Abdurahman's report on 24 Oras, the victim was found lifeless and covered in blood by the time the police reached him his car, parked along Padre Algue and Abad Santos Streets in Manila.

Security guard Ismael Abedin said he noticed the car at around 6:30 a.m.

“Noong medyo tumagal na naka-halata yung mga traffic aide, sinilip nila. Nung silipin nila, nakahandusay na yung driver. Patay na pala. Nakita nila na may dugo dito sa tiyan niya,” he said. 

(After some time, the traffic aides noticed the car and went to take a look. They saw that the driver was already dead, with blood on his stomach.)

CCTV footage showed the car on the side of the road, its hazard lights on. It also showed a man walking up to the car, then striking away at the driver's side, then walking away.

“Pagdating na pagdating ng suspect sa may bintana, pagtapat niya nakita natin na agad itong inundayan ng saksak yung biktima natin na paulit-ulit. Nakita mo rin yung kanyang gigil ba, doon sa pagsasaksak,” said Police Major Dennis Turla, Manila Police District Homicide Chief. 

(As soon as the suspect got to the window, we can see that he immediately started stabbing the victim repeatedly. You can also see his rage as he stabbed the victim.)

Three or four stab wounds were found on the victim.
